Money is what the Tooth Fairy wants to give, but friends are what Brodi wants to have. Ensuing negotiations result in the loan of two elves for Brodi to play with. As Brodi, Winola, and Edwin play, Brodi and the audience, with the help of six short songs, learn how to make and keep friends. Names of the familiar tunes sung in the play, and the original lyrics are included in the teacher activity and discussion guide.

“Our staff and our students were amazed by the quality of the CLIMB performers and the strong message about friendship that they shared with us. The students were actively engaged in the performance. Students were heard singing the CLIMB songs throughout the week. The play gave students a new way to approach difficult relationships. Our staff has already asked if we can book CLIMB again for next year."
